Bob, the question has come up before more than once. I know of no models of the three dinghies.
I believe the Windermere Steamboat Museum sells a cardboard model of Esperance which was certainly at least
part of the Houseboat inspiration (Gondola being the other part). It's been pointed out that there might
be a market for models, wooden or plastic (sorry!) of Swallow, Amazon, and Scarab but no one
has come up with them to my knowledge.

Folks have also asked about plans for the boats; the closest I know of are published in Roger Wardale's
Nancy Blackett. Of course in the case of Swallow nobody really knows since she has been lost
and never found.
